SAINT-GOBAIN ACCELERATES ITS DEVELOPMENT IN MORTARS IN PERU

Saint-Gobain has just closed the acquisition of 100% of the mortars division of the Celima group in Peru, a market where Saint-Gobain has been present since 2014 through its Weber brand. The mortars division acquired is a leader in the country's tiling adhesives market and operates three plants in Lima, Arequipa and Trujillo. In 2018, it generated approximately €25 million in sales and has around 100 employees.

This acquisition is in line with the Group's strategy of deepening its footprint in emerging countries, and allows Saint-Gobain to accelerate its development and expand its offering in Peru in a fast- growing construction market. The Group is already a major player on the country's glass and plasterboard markets.
